What about some of that white Florida sand?  People would just love to buy a can of that...

I'm saving up for it Samuel. :D  Now if someone would send me a can of warm, dry air, I'd take out a loan! ;D

Well my BIL ownes a canning factory where he cans smoked kippers (herring) www.imofoods.com 

I wish they canned Smoked Oysters, I've been looking for quite some time now for smoked oysters that didn't come from China. After my sons friend told us about the things he saw while over there we make an effrot not to buy any food from China.

Trax, I am with you.  Went to buy frozen fish.  Most were from China or Viet Nam.  Found some nice catfish from USA, bought 'em.  They were good.  Won't knowingly buy food from China.  Only buy fresh mushrooms now too.

Trax I think Cloverleaf has canned smoked oysters (85 g size), but I think they are coming from Taiwan now.  :-X Possibly not, explore this site.
